Concrete Scaling: causes and prevention
Concrete scaling is the local flaking or peeling off of the near-surface concrete due to environmental factors like freezing and thawing. Other factors that may contribute to the initiation of concrete scaling are the use of low-strength concrete, deicing salts, and a high water-cement ratio in a concrete mixture.
The process of concrete scaling begins with small patches but develops and merges with the larger patches and broader areas if it is not repaired soon. The scaling in concrete can be fixed by cleaning the deteriorated areas and resurfacing the concrete.
